User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0
Build ID: 20170904100131

Steps to reproduce:

Enabled WebRender by:

Using Firefox nightly, go to about:config and change the following prefs:

    turn off layers.async-pan-zoom.enabled
    turn on gfx.webrender.enabled
    turn on gfx.webrendest.enabled
    turn on gfx.webrender.layers-free
    add and turn on gfx.webrender.blob-images
    if you are on Linux, turn on layers.acceleration.force-enabled

Restarted Firefox.

Started loading previously saved tabs. 


Actual results:

The tab loading indicator jumped up while loading (this generally goes from right to left and back). There was no "burst" like there is when WR is not enabled. 


Expected results:

Same as latest Nightly.
